She envisages photography as a field of the possible, through theory, experimentation and private commissions. She develops and renews a practice which stimulates one's view while at the same time questioning the processes of perception and representation of the real so as to better approach phenomena of abstraction. Permeable to technical devices, her work refers to the subject, the medium and the context which troubles an immediate reading and defines a hybrid space suspended between the image, its function and its production.
